2018 Map of La Belle

About this map

The Caloosahatchee River serves as the central artery for this part of Hendry County, with the city of LaBelle positioned along its southern banks. This 2018 survey documents a landscape where the river's path is marked by infrastructure like the La-Belle Bridge and surrounded by a network of drainage systems including the Okaloacoochee Branch and Pollywog Creek. North of the river, the terrain transitions into a grid of rural roads and larger land holdings such as Silver Lake Ranch and the small settlement of Muce. The presence of the Sundance Farms Airport and numerous named local roads like Walter Green Rd SW and Loblolly Rd highlights the modern rural-residential development of the area. This map provides a clear record of South Florida water management and land use, tracing the relationship between the natural wetlands and the organized expansion of the LaBelle community.
